A grandparent’s old phone book is a list of people who mattered to them. Someday your contacts list will tell a story too.

STILLNESS

WHAT THIS MEANS

Who you keep numbers for is a quiet record of your life, assembled without you meaning to make one. Every entry was somebody you needed, worked with, loved or leaned on at some point. Read years later, it works like a map of who you spent your time near.

Scroll your own contacts and notice who is in there that you have not spoken to in a year. Pick one of them and fix that this week.
